Dragon Herbs Cordyceps

We have carried other brands of cordyceps in the past but this product from Dragon Herbs is the best cultivated product on the market as they use very little excipient (rice powder) and it is a true yield extraction meaning that it isn’t cut in potency like the overwhelming majority of herbal products.

Dragon Herbs Cordyceps

We have carried other brands of cordyceps in the past but this product from Dragon Herbs is the best cultivated product on the market as they use very little excipient (rice powder) and it is a true yield extraction meaning that it isn’t cut in potency like the overwhelming majority of herbal products. With 100 capsules per bottle and 500mg of extraction the value per bottle is spectacular (versus our old product was 90 caps and 400mg). This product is extracted it is not simply ground mycelium which is very common in the United States. The product contains ample polysachharide and cordycepin levels to have noticeable benefit on the body. Cordyceps needs to be used at a high dosage to get noticeable benefits so we highly suggest following the manufacturers suggestion of 3 caps 2 times a day. Nearly all the research on cordyceps has used that dosage with little if any benefit at lower doses. This is a great herb for supporting energy levels as well as helping optimize oxygen utilization as a lung tonic and also helping keep cells healthy. Feel free to research cordycepin as it is encouraging. Be sure to try our alcohol tincture of this product as well!

Here is what Dragon Herbs says about this product

Cordyceps Mushroom is one of the superstars of the Chinese tonic herbal system. It is a strange mushroom that grows at very high altitude in the Himalayas. It is an extremely effective and powerful life-enhancing agent, ranking right up there with Wild Ginseng, Reishi and Sika Deer Antler. Because Wild Cordyceps is very rare, potent and highly treasured, it is very expensive (it is perhaps the most expensive herb in the world).

About twenty years ago, Asian scientists learned how to grow Cordyceps by cell culture. The mycelium of the cordyceps can be grown in tanks. Subsequent to this discovery, the cultured Cordyceps Mycelium was tested for its constituents. The Cordyceps Mycelium has a component profile that is very favorable**, even when compared to the Wild Cordyceps. Therefore, it is highly valued and widely used in tonic herbalism, especially in Japan. However, it is MUCH less expensive than the Wild Cordyceps from Tibet or Bhutan.

Cordyceps Mycelium is considered to be a Yang primal essence (Jing) tonic of high stature. It has enormous renown as a life reinforcing tonic, and is said to build sexual and physical power, mental energy, and to support the immune systems of normal, healthy individuals.

Cordyceps Mycelium is used to strengthen the body and mind at a fundamental level. It is said to be able to increase the “primary motive force for life activities.” Because it contains both Yin and Yang it can be used by anyone safely and over a long period of time. It replenishes Yin Jing, restoring the deep energy expended as a result of excessive exertion, adapting to stress or from aging. Cordyceps Mycelium is thus one of the primary herbal substances used in tonic herbalism as an anti-aging agent and for the purposes of rejuvenation.

Cordyceps Mycelium is very widely used for the purposes of strengthening the primal Kidney functions, which include sexual functions, brain power, structural integrity and healing ability of otherwise normal, healthy people. It is a very powerful Yang tonic. As a sexual tonic, Cordyceps is considered to be one of the best.

Consistent use of Cordyceps Mycelium helps to strengthen the skeletal structure of normal, healthy individuals. Cordyceps is also a major Lung tonic. It can be used to strengthen respiratory power of normal, healthy individuals

Cordyceps Mycelium is considered in Asia to be a powerful athlete’s tonic. It has no steroidal constituents, but greatly improves performance and muscle building capability of normal, healthy individuals.

Cordyceps Mycelium can help support the body’s normal, healthy immune function.*

Not all cultured Cordyceps is the same. A number of manufacturers produce Cordyceps Mycelium, but the resulting product can vary widely. Dragon Herbs has studied the matter deeply and has identified the highest quality Cordyceps Mycelium for this product.*
